[LadyBeBop]

My daughter (age 21) thinks it's stupid that TBS is showing it 24 hours straight.

I tell her...it's a tradition.

That said...she's on either her second or third viewing.

 

[Follows Closely]

Only one thing in the world could've dragged me away from the soft glow of electric sex gleaming in the window

[myhousekey]

Always thought the tradition was to play it 24 hours straight on Xmas eve/Xmas. Why a week early?

It will be on sister station TBS for 24 hours on Christmas Eve/Christmas.

Scut Farkus.

Scut Farkus! What a rotten name! We were trapped. There he stood, between us and the alley. Scut Farkus staring out at us with his yellow eyes. He had yellow eyes! So, help me, God! Yellow eyes!

I just learned this myself about 5 years ago.

 

[The Man With No Name]

Never seen it. When does the next one start?

 

[flapgreen]

Never miss it. I love this freaking movie.

 

[jamny]

Still have never seen it. Maybe I'll set the DVR.

One year I will get around to watching this.

 

[Spartans346]

I literally keep it on all day.

This is the third year! Geez....get it done!

"My father works in profanity like other artists work in oils or clays. It was his true medium; a master"

 

[Mr. Mojo]

Voice in the background as Scut Farkus is being pummelled:

"Kill him!"

 

[The Man With No Name]

Still have never seen it. Maybe I'll set the DVR.

Me too. It was released just before I turned 19 which was drinking age at the time, so for many years after that I was probably at the bar and never even heard of it. And working full time, sometimes nights for years after that, I still hadn't heard of it.

 

[urbanhack]

it's awesome to be able to catch clips of this movie in between all the commercials.

 

[jplvr]

My grandmother's second husband is basically the father in this movie. I pointed this out to her on Christmas day and for the first time ever, she realized it as well. We always have it playing on Christmas morning at her house.

Between my football coach father and my grandmother's second husband, I could cuss as soon as I could say momma and dadda.

The actor in this movie even looks like him. It's uncanny.

I have to watch Christmas Vacation and Christmas Story each year. Elf is growing on me as well, although I have yet to see it this year. I have it recorded and plan on starting it in the next 30 minutes or so.

 

[mad sweeney]

Only watched it twice this year, we're slipping. It's just not the same anymore since Pops took off though. Still, I did get a double-dog dare you T-shirt this year.

 

[The Doctor]

classic

watch it every year

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Watch the scene in the restaurant closely. I'm pretty sure Darren McGavin is the only one that knows how that scene is supposed to go.

Melinda Dillon (the mother) appears to be genuinely laughing in surprise as the scene plays out.

And Billingsly (Ralphie) just about jumps out of his skin when the guy chops off the duck's head.

"It's...smiling at me."

 

[Ministry of Pain]

I skipped it this year, have a feeling it will be on next year.
